Nader still undecided.

Moments ago nearly 800 people paid to view the five Green Part Presidential candidates "debate." It is an overstatement to say that they were debating for they agreed with each other on nearly every topic, from the war in Iraq to the legalization of marijuana. The five candidates were Jared Ball, Jesse Johnson, Cynthia McKinney, Kent Mesplay, and Cat Swift. Ralph Nader is yet to announce that he will be running for the candidacy but he did speak briefly after the debate. He spoke for ten minutes after the debate even though he was scheduled to participate in the debate. In fact Nader arrived late at the debate and left briefly after. This is odd because he was the candidate for the Green Party in both the 2000 and the 2004 election. Furthermore, Nader has not made any sign that he will be the candidate and recently asked his office to declare that he is not a candidate.
